An easy-peasy one for someone I think:

When I set up my site at http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/ as my blog I didn't really read the recommendation to use stories for a one person blog site and started using blog posts. This of course created http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/blog/user

I realized this was compromising several aggregator sites who were getting confused between my home page (http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/) and my blog home page (http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/blog/jock)

So I've now got everything as stories but a lot of links to my site are clearly still using the http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/blog/jock url. Initially I set a path alias inside drupal and people are redirected to the proper home page, but that redirect does not change the URL in their browser so they still think there's really a page http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/blog/jock

So now I want to put a permanent redirect in .htaccess such that anyone trying to get to http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/blog/jock will get redirected to http://www.jockcoats.org.uk/ and their browser will show this in the location bar.

But I can't for the life of me work out what must be the simplest type of mod_rewrite rule to do this. Can someone help please?

Cheers,

Jock
